Leffler Leather 1-day Harness Workshop
About this Event
Join us for a hands-on workshop where you'll craft your very own leather bulldog harness. Whether it's for fashion, festivals or play, you'll leave with a custom-fitted harness and the skills to make more.
We'll teach you how to:
- Select and cut leather
- Burnish and finish edges
- Set buckles, rivets and eyelets
- Work confidently with professional leatherworking tools and materials from the Leffler range
Supply lists are available so you can carry on harness-making to your heart’s content!
Select from sturdy yet comfortable 3mm veg tan leather from the Leffler range.
Leather colours (subject to availability)
- Black
- Dark Brown
- Whiskey
- Red
- Navy
- Dark Green
Choose nickel or brass hardware, with stainless steel available on request.
Feeling extra? Add spikes, chains, or other hardware during the workshop (time permitting).
Every harness is custom-sized.
Prefer not to use leather? Biothane vegan harnesses are also available in a huge range of vibrant colours.
No experience needed—just bring your curiosity and your creativity.
Your tutor is Lou Clifton of Shoe School. With more than a decade of experience teaching shoemaking workshops across New Zealand and Australia, Lou brings a wealth of knowledge and hands-on expertise. She has also worked as a leatherworker for the iconic Melbourne business Lucrezia & De Sade.
